i purchased the samsung ln46b650 hdtv through amazon on march 29, soon after it was first advertised, and after reading lots of reviews of the 2008 "a" model; and comparing the picture with the sony
from www.amazon.com
it's probably the best hd picture i've ever seen, though i haven't seen most of the 2009 models, i'm gauging this based on 2008 models.
from www.amazon.com
i had planned to get the 2008 samsung("a")model; but the 2009 samsung ln46b650 came out just in time.
from www.amazon.com
the "auto-motion plus" (amp) feature is improved over the 2008 model by allowing you to fine-tune the settings more.

$874.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
just plug it in to your macbook pro (late 2008) and it works.

next - the next downside is that right now this display is only compatible with the fall 2008 released macbooks, macbook pros, and the january 2009 released 17-inch macbook pro.
from www.amazon.com
so, if you don't have a macbook made since late 2008, don't buy this monitor.
from www.amazon.com
released at the end of 2008) macbook, macbook pro, or macbook air this display will not work without an adapter which hasn't been released yet!!!

ln46a550 (released march 2008): great tv for those on a tight budget who still want one of best pictures available on any 46" lcd tv.
from www.amazon.com
this at $1370 is the lowest price on the internet right now, 10/6/2008 with free shipping and no tax.
from www.amazon.com
listed as one of the best lcd's of 2008 (actually the 650, but the difference really is the matte screen).
from www.amazon.com
the only negative i have found is that samsung customer service told me that the 2008 models do not support universal remote control codes; so i have to use the samsung remote to turn the tv on/off
from www.amazon.com
supposedly, samsung has been shipping some of its 2008 tv models with panels (screens) from three different manufacturers.
